# GilmoreGirls-S05E10 # source: https://www.springfieldspringfield.co.uk/view_episode_scripts.php?tv-show=gilmore-girls&episode=s05e10 - Whoa, honey. |- I'm sorry. I didn't see you there. Oh, goodness. |What's left to wear on your feet? I know. It's a sickness. Everyone thinks|it started with Bradshaw. But, actually,|it came over on the "Mayflower. " - What a wonderful history lesson. |- Any time. Pasqualie's feeling unappreciated again. We had "Stars Hollow|Loves Pasqualie Day" last week. Didn't stick. Listen, I want to invite you|to my anniversary party. - Absolutely. Which husband?|- No husband. I'm talking about a lover that's been much more loyal|and seductive than a husband. I'm talking about that|business we call show. - Forty years. |- No. Forty years ago today,|I did my first play, off-Broadway. - Off-Broadway?|- Cleveland. - That is off-Broadway. |- Anyhow, I thought I'd throw a big party food, booze, a little song, a little dance,|a little salsa down your pants. - Well, count me and my pants in. |- Wonderful. I will even drag Luke there. So if there's any audience participation,|please pick on him. - Luke won't come. |- Sure he will. I have very effective|methods of persuasion. They include extremely high heels and|all of Jessica Simpson's bath products. No, honey. |The party's on Tuesday. The thirtieth. - So?|- So the thirtieth is the dark day. What dark day? Luke's dark day. |The day that he disappears. - Disappears? Where?|- Nobody knows. Nobody knows|where he goes or what he does. All we know is not to try and find him. - Why didn't I know about this?|- I don't know, honey. Everyone else does. Anyhow, you come yourself, okay? 8:00. I'll be there. See you Tuesday, Patty. Oh, Pasqualie, the maestro. |My God, you look virile today. - Are you sure your wife won't share you?|- She's good. - I don't agree. |- You're living in a fantasy world. - I have classes all day long. |- I hear you protesting. I've got a double major|of poli-sci and bio-chem, Terrence. - I see you over-scheduling. |- Sorry, I'm just getting water here. Paris, you're not yelling at me. |You're yelling at the world. I'm not yelling at all. |This is the natural register of my voice. It's the register of a timid little girl|who is not putting herself out there. - I am putting myself out there. |- Why are you arguing with Terrence? Why? Look, I know I haven't dated lately,|but Asher was very important to me. Hey, Paris, I can't find my notebook. The|black one with all my yellow notes in it. You have not put yourself out there. He just died. Oh, for God's sake. |He was halfway dead when you met him. Rory, has she been|putting herself out there or not? - Out where?|- Out in the world. Has she tried to meet men|since Asher died? You don't just meet people. |It doesn't happen. I'll just go in my room now. Look at your Dream Log. |You are months behind. And your Pretty-Thoughts Journal. Okay, fine. |I have neglected thinking pretty. But I hardly think I should be penalized|for time lost - while you were in court-ordered rehab. |- Hey, Paris, what's this? I had a back problem. The prescription was at home|in my Filofax. This is a message|from Headmaster Charleston. - When did Headmaster Charleston call?|- Earlier. - And you didn't tell me?|- I'm in session. Hello, Headmaster Charleston,|this is Rory Gilmore. I'm sorry it took so long to call you back. |I just got your message. Sweetie, that was|a little passive-aggressive. - We should talk later. |- So, how are you? - I'm very well. How are you enjoying Yale?|- I love it. Is it everything you thought it would be? It's nothing like I thought it would be. |It's better, actually. I have no doubt. Now, I'm calling because we often ask|a former Chilton student to host a prospective Yale student|for a couple of days. Show them around, let them observe|classes, campus life. That sort of thing. - I was wondering if you'd be interested. |- Me? Yes, this is a very speciaI young lady. |Bright, focused, quietly determined. - She reminds me a great deal of you. |- Thank you. I assume you haven't changed. I've upgraded the wardrobe a little bit,|but I'm basically still me. Excellent. Then I hope|you'll consider accepting. I know your workload must be substantial. - That's okay. I can handle it. |- So, I can take that as a "Yes"? Yes, take it as a "Yes," and thank you. - I'm honored. |- Her name is Anna Fairchild. She's 16 years old, and she'll be arriving Monday morning at 9:00. |Does that work for you? - That works perfectly. |- Very well. It's a date. I'm very glad to talk to you again,|Ms. Gilmore. Yale certainly sounds like|it's agreeing with you. I hope it will also agree|with Miss Fairchild. - Like Sabrina. |- I beg your pardon? - Sabrina Fairchild. That was her name. |- Did we segue into discussing a movie? - And we can segue right out again. |- I'm very gratefuI for that. All right, then. My office will be contacting|you with the particulars. I hope you have a wonderful time. |I'm sure Miss Fairchild will. Thank you, Headmaster Charleston. |I won't let you down. What a nice thing to hear. |I'm sure we'll be talking soon. - Goodbye. |- Goodbye. - This is a very big honor, you know. |- Oh, I know. Of all the Chilton alumni at Yale,|they're asking you? I know. I know. Well, have you thought about what kinds of things|you'd like to show her? Well, she'll go to all of my classes|with me, of course. And I thought maybe she'd go|to the paper with me and then I thought, maybe a trip to the Beinecke|Rare Book and Manuscript Library. Oh, you're going to show her|the Gutenberg. - Steve?|- Bible. - Right. |- Then I was torn between taking her|to the Hewitt Memorial Quadrangle or the science center and gymnasium. That is a conundrum. Yeah, especially since|she'll be snoring by then. You'll just be dragging|her dead body weight around the campus. Lorelai, these things are of great interest to any young person|considering attending Yale. Oh, I am sure. I personally would enjoy|every single thing on my list. Yes, I know, but it wouldn't hurt|to maybe throw a little something fun in. I'm not talking a kegger but just walk her by the crazy|drama students yelling "Give me a location. "|or something like that. - You know, your mother may be right. |- Who heard that? Well, a good college experience|is a well-rounded college experience. It's important for you to show her|that Yale students have fun, too. - Have her touch the toe. |- Yeah. - Touch the toe?|- The toe. The statue of Theodore Woolsey. It brings good luck to everyone|who touches his feet. And for that reason, he has one left toe|that's been rubbed completely shiny. Wow, that is fun. Make sure you get a parent-consent form|for that one. Oh, it is so exciting watching you at Yale. |It was such a wonderful time for me. The people that you meet there will stay with you for the rest of your life. |Mark my words. - Tell me, are you making good friends?|- Yeah, I have some good friends. - And what about Mr. Huntzberger?|- Who is Mr. Huntzberger? Logan Huntzberger's a boy|I go to school with. - A fine boy, from a fine family. |- You know him? His parents are very good friends of ours. - You know Mitchum Huntzberger, Lorelai. |- No. He's been coming to our Christmas parties|for years. No. His mother's on the pediatric hospital|committee with your mother. - No. |- Well, Logan is their son. And I noticed that you two|seemed to be hitting it off the other night. - The other night?|- He's very nice, Grandpa. Now, I don't want to be too forward,|but you made a handsome couple. Was this Logan at the male Yale party|you guys threw? He's the one|who gave me a ride home, Mom. Oh, Limo-boy. Swell. He's also on the paper with me. His father owns some of the finest|newspapers in the country. - I know. |- Not a bad connection, huh? Nope, not a bad connection at all. - Hey, so tell me about this Logan. |- It's 3 degrees out here. As of tonight, my father knows way more|personal dish about you than I do. That's not right or fair. He doesn't get as|much enjoyment out of the dish as I do. For him, the dish is always half-empty. You're just talking to keep yourself warm,|aren't you? What is the deal with this guy?|Are you dating? No, we're not dating. He's just a friend. How close? For example,|if we freeze to death will he come to the funeral|or just send a nice fruit basket? I know him from school. |He's just a casual friend. That's it. - Do you think he's cute?|- It doesn't matter if I think he's cute. It matters to me. |I don't want ugly grandchildren. Mom, I'm not dating Logan or anyone. Since Dean, I'm taking a boy break, okay?|I'm just concentrating on school. - Fine, but if that changes|- You'll be the first to know. Okay, thank you. 'Cause there are not|many ways I can outdo my father. Info on you, and looking better in chiffon,|that's about it. Oh, and my pole dance is way hotter. - I'm frozen now. |- Okay, let's go. In my hand, ladies and gentlemen sits the true advantage|of dating a diner owner. I am never more|than 10 feet away from pie. See, I thought it was the way|we always smell faintly of meat. Oh, it's heaven. One quick trip downstairs,|and I have all the treats I want. - You're like Willy Wonka but hotter. |- I am not hotter than Willy Wonka. Slap on a purple top hat, and you're close. This is nice. I think it's going very well, you and me. |You think it's going very well? I have very few complaints. I'm going right past|the "very few complaints" comment 'cause I know you're just trying to bait me. |What complaints? Hey, so, Luke Miss Patty is celebrating|her 40-year anniversary. - Which husband?|- With the business we call show. Oh, him. And she's having a big party,|and I told her we'd go. Oh, man. - It'll be fun. |- It will not be fun. She'll be wearing tap shoes,|and there'll be songs and punch and at least one story|about Milton Berle's penis. - Only one?|- Come on, I have to have you there. Otherwise, people will think|I made you up. - Fine, I'll go. |- Thank you. Okay, so, it's Tuesday at 8:00. I can't go Tuesday. - Why not?|- I have to go out of town. - Why?|- Business. Business? Now you're Willy Loman? Banking business in Woodbury. |Standing appointment. Sorry. Hit the light, will you?|I have to get up early. Night. Okay, night. Wait till you see all the stuff|I got for Anna. Yale T-shirt, Bulldog sweatshirt,|Yale baseball cap, visor, coffee mug. I told you to open a window|when you're hot-gluing in here. It's freezing outside. Oh, wait. This is new. |They just came out with these. - The Yale soda cozy. How cute is that?|- I can't believe you. You don't even have|your loser card-swiping job anymore and you're buying all this crap|for some kid you don't even know? I'm trying to make her feel welcome. Oh, she'll feel welcome. |They all feel welcome. - Who's they?|- The enemy. - What enemy?|- Any girl under the age of 17 is the enemy. - Okay, I'm opening a window now. |- They're coming for everything. They're going to take our jobs,|our thunder, our starter husbands. - Don't you have a class to get to?|- They're coming, Rory. They're coming,|and they're going to keep on coming like the locusts descending on Mankato. We'll be beating them off|for the rest of our lives. Please, don't be here when she arrives. |I don't want you to scare her off. Me? Scare her off? Please. She's the one with the alabaster skin|and the perky breasts. Do not say "perky breasts" to her. - Do you understand me?|- Eve Harrington has arrived. - Hi, I'm looking for Rory Gilmore. |- I'm Rory. You must be Anna. - Yes. |- Great, come in. - Did you find it okay?|- I got lost a couple of times but people were really nice|and got me here. Yeah, it's a friendly world out there,|isn't it? Anna, this is my roommate,|Paris, and I'm sorry. - For what?|- Trust me. Okay. Okay, let me show you around the place. - That is Paris' room. |- Don't go in. That is my room. And this is the common room,|which is also your bedroom. - The bathroom is literally outside the door. |- Okay. And there's a fridge with water|or soda or whatever you want. Oh, and I got you|some welcome-to-Yale gifts. Oh, really? Thank you. I'm really glad you're here. |You are going to love Yale. It's an amazing place. I mean, I was excited|when I first started here but every day is different and better. You have no idea|how much there is to learn. It's - Well, you'll see. |- Okay, I actually snagged us some caviar. They were all out of toast points,|but I think we can use Doritos and achieve a very similar result. Hey. - This is Anna. |- Did Paris move? - I'm right here, Marty. |- I know, Paris. Anna is from Chilton, my alma mater. I'm|showing her around Yale for a few days. Oh, cool. I'll put this in the fridge. In my room. - Thanks. Okay, you ready?|- I'm ready. - You have boys bringing you food. |- Yale is a magical place, Anna. A magical, magical place. The oldest part of the campus is,|of course, the Old Campus and it houses|most of the undergraduate freshman class. It was begun|by Theodore Dwight Woolsey President of Yale from 1846 to 1871. Over here is the Elihu Yale bench. Now, Eli Yale was an officer|in the British East India Company. He gave what was then called|the Collegiate School £562 and 417 books|and a portrait of King George I. And so it was renamed in his honor. He actually gave an additional|£500 to the school but Yale College never received it|because he mistakenly sent it to the nonexistent Collegiate School apparently forgetting that|Yale was named after him. Wait, this is the wrong bench. So keep the story,|but cross out the diagram. Moving on|There's actually an ongoing rumor that you can automatically graduate|and earn your degree if you become sufficiently fluent|in Latin, Greek, and Hebrew. Imagine all the tables|you could wait with those skills, huh? Okay, you are about to get|a firsthand feel of what it's like to work|on a real newspaper. Now be prepared. It is an extremely hectic,|fast-paced environment. Don't get intimidated,|and don't get in the way. Ready? Here it is. Everyone must be out|getting a scoop or something but you just wait. It can heat up in a second. |And when it does, man, watch out. - My desk is over here. |- I do not care. Hey, I am your editor, Paris,|and I demand that you tell me. I won't tell you where I got it, Doyle. You will if you want|to stay on this newspaper. Okay, you are now privy to one|of the classic journalistic dilemmas between reporter and editor: the right to withhold and protect sources. Damn it, Paris, you tell me|where you got that pen right now. - The pen fairy. |- That is one of my personal fine-point gel-tip pens|from my bottom right-hand drawer and you went into that drawer,|and you took that pen, and it's mine. Okay, for "fine-point gel-tip" substitute "confidential source|deep within the administration. " You get a little thrill, don't you? Hang on a sec. Hey. Question: have you ever heard anything|about Luke's dark day? His what? Well, one day a year,|he apparently has a dark day. No one knows where he goes|or what he does. He just disappears. I've heard nothing about this. Okay, well, did we see him|on November 30th last year? How am I supposed to know? Because you keep all those|crazy, anal Bob Graham kind of notebooks. "8:00 a. m. : got up. 8:15: brushed teeth. "8:25: had impure thoughts. |8:36: sent dwarves off to work. " I do not have my diaries|from last November on me at the moment. - But you do have them. |- Yes. And they will contain|where we ate breakfast that morning. Yes. - I love my little circus freak. |- I'll call you later. - Did your Mini-Me show up?|- Yeah, her name's Anna. She's right here. - How's the tour going?|- It's going great. How many boring bench lectures|did you give? Two, but they were about the same bench. You know what? I have someone standing|abnormally close to me, right now. - I'll call you later?|- Okay, say hi to Kirk for me. Okay, bye. Kirk, what can I do for you? - I have a business proposition for you. |- Okay. - How often do you slip in your tub?|- Never. Okay, it doesn't work|if you answer like that. Constantly. I never stop slipping,|even when I get out. I thought so. Then my new line of bath-and-shower adhesive decals|are for you. "Yesterday, today, and tomorrow. " Yesterday's retro designs|in today's fashion colors with tomorrow's traction technology. Well, Kirk, this looks very impressive|and, wow, very expensive. Well, it's yesterday's retro designs|in today's fashion colors with tomorrow's traction technology. Well, why don't you leave|the catalog with me and I'll look it over? Could you look at it now? It's my only one. Okay. I like that one. If you put the fishes' faces together,|it looks like they're kissing. Hey, Kirk, do you know anything|about Luke's dark day? - Everyone knows about Luke's dark day. |- Do you know what it is? Not the details,|just that he has it once a year. - I think it goes back a long, long time. |- Yeah? Sure, I mean, Luke's always had|a touch of darkness in him. I guess we all do, but Luke's a little more touched than some. He's kind of grabbed, actually. What do you think it's about? When I was in seventh grade,|Luke knocked the books out of my hands. Because of his dark day? No, everyone knocked my books|out of my hands. I was kind of a target. |I used to wear a cape to school. Now, outside,|we just passed the women's table which was designed by Maya Lin. She's also the one who designed|the Vietnam War Memorial which, by the way,|originally was a class project for which she received a B. The teacher who gave her the B also submitted a design|for the war memorial but hers was chosen. His was not. That's a life lesson to remember. This is Sterling Memorial Library. One of my favorite places on campus. It was built in 1930,|and it houses over one-third of the university's 10 million volumes. I love libraries. I just spend|I can't tell you how many hours just - You're not writing. |- Oh, sorry. - So I come here sometimes, late at night-|- I just love how everybody's dressed. - What?|- No uniforms. I love that there's no uniforms. - College to me means no more uniforms. |- Oh, right. However, wait till you're late for class and it takes you 20 minutes|to put together an outfit. Suddenly you'll miss those uniforms. How many guys have you dated|since you've been here? Oh, well, none from Yale. Anyhow, the books. |Are you seeing the books? Everything you'd want to read|is right here. Feel it. Feels good, right? Now smell it. Nothing, nothing, smells like that. I'm sorry. Excuse me. |Did I just see you smell that book? - Hey, Logan. |- Hey, Ace. Who's your friend? Oh, Anna, this is Logan. Logan,|this is Anna. She's from my high school. - I'm showing her around campus. |- Hi. Well, high school? Nah,|I would've sworn you're a college girl. - So, is she showing you a good time?|- I'm showing her everything important. Good. Make sure she takes you|by the pub. Local place. Everyone goes there. - I'm not taking her to the pub. |- Oh, please? The pub sounds fun. You don't have to drink. |They do have coffee. It's a cool scene. Make her take you. |Bring a book to sniff. What are you doing in a library anyhow? Got lost. Don't tell anyone I was here. |Ruin my rep. Anna, it's been a pleasure. See you, Ace. - He's cute. |- Yes, he is, but not as cute as Pushkin. Right this way, missy. - Fine. Do whatever you want. |- Well, I'm sorry you're so upset. You're giving me a week's notice. What am I supposed to do|with a week's notice? Well, my son just called me from Florida|to tell me the condo moved. Okay, fine, go. Enjoy Florida. I hear they have great weather there. |Terrific hurricanes. Make sure you bring plenty of plywood|and bottled water. - Hey, hi, hello. |- What are you doing here? I was just driving down the street,|and I saw you. I thought I'd stop by|and say "hey, hi, hello. " - Hello, Mrs. Thompson. |- Hello, dear. - So what's going on?|- Nothing. Nothing's going on. Luke, please understand. |There's nothing I can do. I've already found someone|to rent the house. And they have cars. - And you just agreed to that?|- Well, it seemed rather reasonable to me. Oh, come on. - Luke's very upset with me. |- Why? Well, his father rented the garage. He was building a boat,|and he didn't have room at his place so he paid me to do it here. And then when he died,|Luke continued to pay for the garage. And now I'm moving to a nursing home,|and I need him to move his boat. You're mad because this little old lady|is moving to a nursing home and you have to move your boat? Is this really the story|you want to stick to? She called me out of the blue,|and I paid for an entire month. I can give you a partial refund if you like. Where am I supposed to find a space|to store a boat on a moment's notice? Did you think about that|for even a second? Could we sit down? The doctor says|the screw in my hip is loose. Yes, yes, let's sit. |Let's sit and calmly try to figure this out. No, no. I've got it figured out. |Just haul it off. Trash it. - Haul what off?|- The boat? Yes, the boat. Scrap it. Find somebody to drag it away - and cut it up for firewood. |- Oh, now, Luke. Who's gonna haul it off? Anyone. Just find a guy|with a truck and a hook. And strap it on and drive it away|and send me the bill. - I'm done. |- Luke. We'll be right back. Luke, stop. What, what, and what? I have been paying that woman|every month for 15 years. Luke, she's moving to a nursing home. And my dad was paying her every month|20 years before that. - Nursing home, Luke. |- I know where she's going. - She's not trying to hurt you. |- Whatever. - Where are you going?|- Back to the diner. - Let me drive you. |- No. I can drive you back to the diner. I promise if we pass any senior citizens,|I'll let you jump out and pants them. Fine. And over here we have|the world-famous Luke's Diner home of the best coffee|on the East Coast and the most delightful|and chatty proprietor since Mel kissed Flo's grits. Okay, well, I should get back to the inn. I hope you've enjoyed your tour and don't forget to buy yourself|a souvenir plastic monkey on the way out. Tomorrow's the anniversary|of my dad's death. Oh, hon And every year on that anniversary I disappear. |I don't work. I don't talk to anyone. I get into kind of a funk. It's like You have a dark day. Yeah, I have a dark day. I thought I should tell you this|because we're in a relationship. I thought you might wonder why I suddenly don't answer the phone|or I'm not around. Why you can't flip your hair and con me into going|to Miss Patty's crazy anniversary party. - The hair flip is that effective?|- You combine that with your black dress you could probably get me|to be your backup dancer. I'll remember that. I've never told anyone this before. |I don't really like to talk about it. I guess that explains|the thing with Mrs. Thompson. Yeah. Some timing,|her springing this boat thing on me now. I'll apologize to her. You know, he never finished that boat. It's been sitting there|half-done for 15 years. Hey, Luke,|don't you think you might have been a little too hasty about the boat decision? I mean, you're upset and I bet|someday you're gonna be really sorry you don't have that boat anymore. No, it's better|she gets rid of the thing now. - But-|- I haven't even looked at that boat since my dad got sick. It's - Not a glance, nothing. |- Even more reason. If it's gone,|then I don't have to deal with it. It's time to move on, you know? - But-|- I'm fine, really. - Thanks for the ride. |- Anytime. - I love it here. |- You love it here? We just walked in. I know, but it feels so collegiate. Actually, you know what is great|about this place? - Eli Yale drank here?|- No, they make amazing cappuccinos. - You want one?|- Yeah. - Okay, you go sit, and I'll get the coffees. |- Okay. - Two cappuccinos, please. |- Sure thing. Hey. - Hi, you just get here?|- Yeah. - You want a|- Yes, please. I'm sorry. |Could you make that three cappuccinos? So, how's it going? I think I may have overwhelmed Anna. |Her hand cramped up about an hour ago. And it's been spasming ever since. - Where is she?|- She's right - Really?|- You wanna go to a party tonight? I turn around for one minute. Excuse me. Oh, Rory, Mark and Matthew|were just telling me about a great party tonight. Really? That was very nice of them. |Thank you, Matthew and Mark, was it? - That's right. |- Well, how biblical. Okay, well, our schedule|is completely full at the moment but if that changes, if things lighten up or if she suddenly ages two years|in the next three hours then we'll know where to find you, okay?|Bye-bye, now. Bye-bye. We'll be over here, just in case. - Rory. |- Anna. Oh, this is so not fair. |You get to talk to boys. What? Well, you were over there|talking to Marty. That's different. Marty's just a friend,|which is another great thing about college. You learn to have guy friends. |Nothing romantic, just a good pal. Those boys|are not interested in your friendship unless the word "friendship"|is tattooed on your butt. Now, drink your coffee. It's good, huh? Can I sleep with the TV on? Yeah, as long as you don't wake Paris up. |And that advice is for your own good. - And if I can't go to sleep?|- Then you don't go to sleep. I love that. I love not having|someone tell me when to go to sleep. - Yes, it's great. |- I love sleeping with the TV on and I love having no parents around,|and I love cappuccino and I love apple muffins,|and I love college. What's she on? Four cappuccinos|and the three Red Bulls from the fridge. - Enjoy your night. How do I look?|- Where are you going? I'm putting myself out there, Rory. - Now?|- Yes, now. It's 11:00 at night. Who are you hoping to hook up with now,|Spike and Drusilla? - Just tell me if my lipstick is too whorish. |- No, just whorish enough. Going out at 11:00 at night? I love college. I may suffocate her when I get back. - Hey, if you can catch her. |- Bye. Good luck. - Good night, Anna. |- Night. Which brings us to this question: Does Campbell's work successfully resolve|the disparate stances of Jung and Freud when it comes|to the collective unconscious? Hey, pay attention. Professor Bell is one of the foremost|philosophy professors in the country. - Sorry. |- bordered on being metaphysical? All right, let's call that close enough. But now, Campbell can point|to the repetition of the hero myth in culture after culture and say: "Hey, Sigmund, like it or not "here are the same basic characters|over and over"- Excuse me. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm right in the middle of a class,|young man. I know. I'm sorry, I just|Rory, you can't just walk out like that. Not after everything we've been through. |You just left. I was still in bed. I mean, what is that all about? Okay, you need to do this later. I can't do this later. |Rory, I love you. I love you, damn it. How many times do I have to tell you?|God, just talk to me. - Okay, out. Right now. Just get-|- Colin. What are you doing, man?|Get the hell out of here. She's with me now. I told you. Let it go. - I will not let it go. |- She doesn't love you. Rory, tell him you don't love him. Everything was fine until you came along. Don't blame me|'cause you couldn't keep her. - I swear to God, I'm gonna kill you. |- Oh, I'd love to see you try. Stop it. Stop it right now. |Anthony, get security. Break it up. What are you Gentlemen, you are losing control. |You're in a classroom with students All right, that's enough. |Break it up, you two. Rory Gilmore,|you should be ashamed of yourself. Toying with these boys like this. They used to have pride. |They used to have dignity. They used to have balls. Damn it, Gilmore,|give them back their balls. - God, this is a lot of junk. |- I know. Who has three Thighmasters|besides Suzanne Somers? Well, Mrs. Thompson, apparently. You'd think if you had three Thighmasters,|you'd wear some slacks once in a while. I'm sorry, but why exactly|did you have to take all this crap? It was the only way|I could get her to give me the boat. Some guy wanted it,|and she got him to buy all her other crap. So if I wanted the boat,|I had to take everything and that's what I did. I just have to hide it for a few days,|then I'll move it. - Where?|- I don't know. Somewhere. The inn. |I'll put it in the old stable out back. - Are you ever gonna tell Luke?|- Yes. - When?|- A week, a year. I haven't thought that far in advance. I just couldn't let her|get rid of his dad's boat. What if we hang the Thighmasters on it? - Or get more trees. |- Yeah, or get more trees. - Jackson's got some trees at home. |- Think I could borrow them? Sure, we'll just wait till he lies down|for his nap and sneak them out. Great, then I'll hop a fence and get Richard Widmark|to sign my grapefruit. I'd like to welcome you all|to today's speed-dating session. Many of you have been with us before. |Many of you are first-timers. For the latter group, here are the rules. |Each couple will have one minute to talk and get a sense of the person|across from them. When the bell rings, the women|will get up and switch tables. Men, stay where you are. This will continue until every|woman has met every man and after that, it's up to you. Are we all ready?|Then let the dating begin. - I'm Jack. |- Paris. Did your parents travel a lot? - Why?|- Your name is Paris. No. Did your parents|change flat tires a lot? What? - Or plug the phone into the wall a lot?|- No. Great, so we've cleared up that mystery. What's next on your fascinating|list of talking points? - What's your major?|- Seriously? You've got one minute|to make an impression and that's all you can come up with? You want to know my sign, too, Jack?|Or how about my favorite color? Or if I'm a Britney or a Christina?|Here, I'll ask you a question. Was the last time you had|an interesting thought when you considered flinging|yourself off a building? Bye, Jack. I'll write Mother immediately. Paris, and no, my parents didn't travel. Billy, and I have no idea what that means. - Never mind. So, what's your story, Billy?|- Well, I'm a drama major. - Doyle. |- Paris. - I'm surprised to see you here. |- I could say the same for you. So, you find any good prospects? - Yes, one girl wants to have 11 children. |- Good God. The second one was cut off quickly. |Thank you, by the way. The words "Latter-Day Saints"|were about to come out of her mouth. - I can't believe I came here. |- It's my third time. You ever meet anyone|you actually wanted to date? My bar is so not that high. I don't see one person in this room|that shouldn't be sterilized immediately. Right there with you. So, you've been reading|about those skeletons they've been finding|on the island of Flores, right? Oh, yeah. They're only 13,000 years old. |That's nothing in geological time. They made tools and probably|had a language and- Keep moving, sister. Hey, you know|they were supposed to be master hunters. Even though they were diminutive in size. And then, when that other guy came in|in that outfit how great was that? We also studied Dylan Thomas today. |Why don't we talk about that for a while? Yeah, that was cool. But when Logan and Colin started to fight,|that was so amazing. The teacher had nothing to say, nothing. |He just stood there. - Think they'll get in trouble for that?|- Oh, probably not. God, that's great. The freedom. I mean, you can do anything in college. |No rules, no consequences. Anna, there are always consequences. |You're getting the wrong idea. College is not just a crazy, wild,|sleep-deprived hedonistic society. - Oh. It wasn't the TV. |- No, it wasn't the TV. - This isn't what it looks like. |- I hope not. - I told you it wasn't the TV. |- Hi, Paris. - All right, fine. Doyle and I had sex. |- Okay, Anna, get your coat. We met at speed-dating,|and we considered having dinner first but we both knew where it was|going to end up, so we figured we'd just cut to the chase|and save the calories. - Hurry up, Anna. |- Where are we going? - Dinner. |- It's only 5:00. You've no right to be repulsed|by my sex life. This is an exceptionally comfortable robe. Dinner whenever you want,|random sex whenever you want. I can't wait to go to college. - Ice cream and cereal for dinner. |- Yeah, yeah, yeah. College rocks. - Ladies. |- Hi, Logan. - How are we doing this fine evening?|- We're doing great. You want to join us? Sure. - So, dull day, huh?|- Not for me. - Someone's quiet. |- Got nothing to say. Do you get the sense|that she's mad at me? Yup. Hey, Anna, why don't you head on over|to the fro-yo social? You remember where it is, right? Yeah, but I just had|three scoops of ice cream. Kid, you're in college now, okay?|Now, go get yourself some yogurt. Are you going to come, Logan? I'm not sure how well I'll be walking, here,|in a minute, Anna. Oh, okay. Bye. That's not a good look. - I have no words. |- It was just a joke. Oh, no, wait. I thought of some:|jerk, ass, arrogant, inconsiderate mindless, frat-boy, lowlife,|butt-faced miscreant. "Butt-faced miscreant"? - Why would you do something like that?|- I'm sorry, "butt-faced miscreant"? Here I am, trying to show Anna|what college life is really like- - That is what college life is really like. |- Maybe your college life, not mine. That was my class, Logan. That was my professor|who decides my grades and you made me look ridiculous to him. No, I made me look ridiculous to him. Oh, you don't think|he thinks I was a part of it? I'll talk to him. I'll tell him you were|an innocent bystander. The whole class was in a frenzy|the entire time. We never got back|to what we were talking about. There's another class next week. I know that classes|and the paper and Yale in general mean nothing to you,|but it means something to me. Professor Bell's course|is only six weeks long and you blew one of those weeks for me. I won't get that week back. Look, you want a close and personal time|with Bell, my dad knows him. - He'll arrange-|- Please stop talking. I'm sorry you're so bent out of shape. |I didn't mean to upset you. Anna thinks that Yale is just a big joke. If Anna thinks Yale is just a big joke|after spending five minutes with you then she was always gonna think|Yale was just a big joke. Relax. You and me, very different people. I have to go. To the fro-yo social? Yes, I have to go to the fro-yo social. And yes, I do realize|how incredibly stupid that just sounded. Excuse me. All I'm saying is|I just want a little information. Is this a relationship? A one-night stand? The beginning of a series|of late-night booty calls? I think I have the right to know. I hear you. Doyle, do you hear her? I do hear her. I just don't understand why we can't decide this|amongst ourselves. Because you can't, Doyle. |Now, please tell Paris how you feeI. Well, I feel that- Speak into the phone, Doyle. |I can't hear you. - Is Anna here?|- No, why? She didn't show up at the fro-yo social. - Jeez, do you blame her. |- I have to find her. Why? Did you loan her money|or something? Just go back|to what you were doing, please. Hey, Marty, I lost Anna. |I don't know where. Just Thanks. If she comes back here, call me. Go ahead, Doyle. Tell him. - Any idea where she'd go?|- No, she was supposed to meet me. - I can't believe I let her go off by herself. |- Well, we'll find her. - Mom. |- Hi. Where would a 16-year-old girI go|for a good time? Oh, how sad that you had to come to me|for this conversation. - Mom. |- You were 16 a lot more recently than me. - I lost Anna. |- How did you lose Anna? She never showed at the fro-yo social. Okay, relax. 16-year-old girl at college. |You have to check parties. Bars and Chinese restaurants rarely card. - No Chinese restaurants around. |- The pub. Did you check the pub? No. The pub. We have to check the pub. |Parties and the pub. Okay, call me when you I have to go, hon. |Call me when you find her. - Okay, bye. |- Bye. - Oh, my God. Are you okay?|- I smashed my leg on a Thighmaster. I'm so sorry. Yeah, and then I tripped|and smashed my other leg - on another Thighmaster. |- I'm sorry. Why the hell do you have|so many Thighmasters? I have a really bad thigh complex. |Are you bleeding? You want to come in? No, I'm fine. I just You left your glasses at my house. - I thought you might need them. |- Thank you. I didn't think you'd be here. - I thought you were going to Patty's thing. |- I was just leaving. - I don't have to go if you want to come in. |- No, it's okay. I'm still going through my dark day. |I'm gonna go. Okay. Sorry about your foot. - What's going on with your garage?|- What? - Your garage door looks all weird. |- Oh, no, it's fine. It's jammed. Just leave it. You can't leave it open like that. |You could ruin all your stuff. That's okay. Too much stuff anyhow. |If a little bit gets ruined serves me right for being|so darn materialistic. - What are all these trees doing here?|- No, just stop. Go back to your dark day. |No, no, don't, don't. There's clowns in there|and puppies wearing costumes and they'll cheer you up,|and then your dark day will be ruined. What is this? - It's your boat. |- I thought I told her to get rid of this boat. She did. She sold it to me with all of her|other crap. She made a killing, actually. I just couldn't stand the idea that you might regret someday|giving this boat away. - Even though I said I wanted it gone?|- Yes, I know, but you were upset. - No, I was cranky. Now I'm upset. |- I'm sorry. I just thought- You thought about you. |You thought about you and how you'd feel. You didn't think about me|or the fact that I said I wanted to get rid of this damn boat. - I said it, you heard it, and you ignored it. |- Because I didn't want you- You have no respect for what I wanted. |This was my dad. This was his boat,|and this decision was mine. - This was not yours. |- I know. This is who I am. I don't want to hang on to things|or stare at things. Except my horoscope which is absolutely the wrong|thing to bring up right now. I'm sorry. - I'm getting out of here. |- No, I'm sorry. Please, just stay and yell at me. Why? What's the point?|You don't listen to anything I say, anyhow. - She's nowhere. |- She's not nowhere. This is all my fault. - There's more bars. We'll find her. |- God, I'm so stupid. If I didn't have to confront Logan|like that I wouldn't have had to send her off on her|own and we wouldn't be looking for her. We'll find her. He's so frustrating, that guy. I mean, I don't know what I did|to get on his bad side or why he just has to come after me like- - Oh, stop it. |- What? He's not coming after you. He likes you. - He does not. |- Oh, please, Rory. Marty, he does not like me. |I mean, look at what he did. Look at that stunt that he pulled. |He totally humiliated me. Attention like that from people like Logan|is like being tapped. - You've been anointed. You're in. |- In what? In with him, with his group. He likes you. - Stop being so naive. It's annoying. |- Marty- Hello? Ms. Gilmore, Headmaster Charleston here. Oh, hi, Headmaster Charleston. |What's going on? Well, not much. Thank you for asking. I was just wondering how things|are going with Miss Fairchild. - Oh, fine. |- Yes? Everything's great. Wonderful. |Then I can inform Anna's parents that the underage girl|the Yale campus police found when they broke up a rather raucous party|is, in fact, not their daughter. - I'm sorry, Headmaster Charleston. |- And what a help that is. I tried. I just|I turned around for a moment. Did she tell you about the bench?|'Cause I spent a lot of time- I'm sorry, Ms. Gilmore. I have to go. Some angry parents will be here|in a moment to talk to me. I appreciate the attempt. |Good luck at Yale. Bye, Headmaster Charleston. The campus police got her. She came, she spent one day with me,|and she got sent home by the police. And I think I'm going|to retroactively flunk high school. - At least she's safe, right?|- Right. Crappy, crappy day. You want to take a cab? My treat. Thanks. I think I'm gonna walk. - Marty|- I'll see you tomorrow. - What are you doing?|- I smell like trees. You do? Hey, me, too. Now we're the crazy pine-scented ladies. - How's your punch?|- It's good. You okay? Yeah, fine, just fine. Thank you. Thank you, everyone. I'm honored that you came here to help me celebrate|40 wonderful years on the stage. It feels so good to be here|in front of an audience and so close to a piano. So close to a piano. Kirk. Sorry. Hey, Patty, why don't you do|a little something for us? Well, if you insist. Hit it. I'll be right back. Hey. See, there's a reason I stay away from people on this|particular day. It's 'cause I kind of suck. Oh, Luke, I'm so sorry. |I should have listened to you. I should have stayed out of it. |You were right. I didn't think. I mean, I didn't think like you would think. |I thought like I would think and my thinking is sometimes|very, very wrong if you're not me. And, occasionally, if you are me. You just keep thinking like you'd think. I can do that. Do you want to come in?|You can get drunk just standing next to the punch bowl. - Nah, I'm still kind of|- I get it. - I just didn't want us to-|- We're not. - Yeah. You go have a good time. |- See you tomorrow. - Yeah, you'll see me tomorrow. |- Okay. Logan. Richard? Wow, this is a pleasant surprise. - Finn, Colin, you know Richard, don't you?|- Well, hello, boys. Nice to see you. Logan, I wanted to talk to you. |I just heard about the incident. - The|- I heard that you professed your feelings - for Rory. |- What? Mr. Bell is a very dear friend of mine. |As is the Dean of Admissions. - You know this place. News travels fast. |- Yeah, look- I have to tell you that, while I understand|what could have driven you to such a public display of affection there is a proper time and place|for that sort of thing. And a classroom in the middle of class|is not one of them. - No, I know. I-|- However, what's done is done. It's out. So I dropped by to tell you|that I've spoken to your father. - My father. |- We pounded out a few things property agreements, prenups,|that sort of thing. - Okay, I think there's been-|- We came to a very fair agreement. I'm sure you'll be pleased. Now, we're setting up a dinner|for next week to finalize the engagement|and start talking about the ceremony. Emily is handling|all the newspaper announcements. - So not to worry. That's all taken care of. |- But- She's a fine young lady, Logan. |I want her to be happy. You'll take care of that, I assume. All right, I'll let you get|back to your coffee break. Nice seeing all of you again. |And, Logan, welcome to the family, son. I do hope one of his dopey-looking friends|knows CPR or he just might not make it. You're the best, Grandpa. All right, who's next?|Paris giving you any trouble? Not any more than usual. However, there is a girl|in my modern poetry class who keeps kicking my chair. - I do love this place. |- Right back at you, Grandpa. English
